The relationship between absolute counts of lymphocyte subsets and clinical features in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis
ConclusionsIn most patients with tuberculosis, immune function is impaired. The absolute counts of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets are closely related to the aetiological results and lesion severity in patients with PTB; this could be used as evidence for immune intervention and monitoring curative effects.

Construction and validation of prognostic nomograms for elderly patients with metastatic non ‐small cell lung cancer
ConclusionsWe established and validated novel nomograms for predicting LCSS and OS in elderly patients with metastatic NSCLC with desirable discrimination and calibration ability. These nomograms could provide personalized risk assessment for these patients and assist in clinical decision. (Source: The Clinical Respiratory Journal)

The Korean ‐Lung Information Needs Questionnaire: Translation, validation and clinical implications in comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation
ConclusionsWe translated the LINQ into Korean, implemented cross-cultural adaptation and verified its validity and reliability. K-LINQ can now be useful in various clinical and research fields in the Republic of Korea and could serve a complementary role and become an axis of successful treatment strategies, including a comprehensive PR programme.

Effectiveness of 12 ‐week inspiratory muscle training with manual therapy in patients with COPD: A randomized controlled study
This study brings a new perspective to the application of IMT and its beneficial effects. AbstractThe benefits of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) in patients with COPD were reported. However, its effects are limited in severe COPD patients. Further researches are required in new and complementary modalities demonstrating IMT efficacy in severe COPD patients. This study aims to investigate effects of manual therapy (MT) additional over IMT on functional capacity, respiratory muscle strength, pulmonary function, dyspnea, fatigue, and quality of life in severe COPD patients. Sixty patients with COPD in GOLD stage III –IV ...

Cytological patterns of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in mechanically ventilated COVID ‐19 patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
ConclusionHigh neutrophil proportions can be observed in critically ill COVID-19 patients despite the lack of microbiological evidence on BAL of bacterial superinfection. Dexamethasone was associated with lower neutrophil proportions in BAL. Our study was probably underpowered to provide BAL cell pattern helpful to predict weaning from ECMO/ventilator.

Severe COVID ‐19 pneumonia in an intensive care setting and comparisons with historic severe viral pneumonia due to other viruses
ConclusionsKey differences were identified within demographics (obesity, ethnicity, age, ICU scores, comorbidities) and organ support. Despite these variations, there were no significant differences in mortality between both groups. Further studies with larger sample sizes would allow for further assessment of clinical parameters in these patients. (Source: The Clinical Respiratory Journal)
